Camera screen turned off?

\015 I usedd my camera one day, and all of a sudden my screen went black. The camera still works tho, and when its really bright outside you can see a little, so im guessing the screen light is just turned on the lowest. I dont know how to turn it back on, and i cant see the options cuz i cant see the menu on the screen. Any help?\015

Zoom error I turned my F470 camera on and received a "zoom error" bar across the screen. The lense does not move outwards after I turn the power on, nor does the plastic sliding screen close when I turn the camera off. The lense is exposed whether or not the camera is on or off. The lense does not make any sounds when I turn the camera on, but I hear (what I think) are the gears when I turn the camera off. When the camera is on, the screen is working, but the image is blurry. I tried other poste

My camera's LCD screen doesn't show the picture on the screen when camera is turned on, however you can see the picture once you turn the camera off and just want to view the picture. Also, the camera won't keep the picture on the screen to view past pictures, and reverts to turning the camera on and the lens zooms out.

White screen Hello, I have a Fuji S5000 Digital Camera that has never caused me any
problems. I was using both the movie and photo functions this afternoon
when, all of a sudden, the EVF/LCD screen turned white. I have removed
the batteries, turned the camera on and off and have reviewed the
troubleshooting information in my manual. At this point, when the
camera is turned on, all I see is a white screen. If I try to take a
photo, the camera will take a picure, but when I go into playback

I went to the beach today, successfully took a picture, turned the camera off, and when I turned it back on the screen was black and it wouldnt turn off and close. Now Im inside and the camera is turning on but the screen and pictures are blurry. Did my camera overheat? Is there going to be heat damage to my camera now? it was only about 81 degrees. I have an olympus fe-20. Thank you

It probably has condensation damage. Keep it in a dry place, basically inside at room temperature, without using it overnight. If the problem is the same the next day, then it would need to be repaired. This can easily happen in devices like cell pho ...

Screen Broken Hi, I had my Samsung l700 camera in my back pocket in a protective case yet the screen somehow broke on the inside and all I see is a black screen with two lines across it when i turn on my camera. The camerea can no longer take pics. They all turn out blurry. Is there a way I can fix this without having to can a new screen and if not where can I order a screen or get my camera fixed online.

HiWe can get you the LCD or do the repair for you if you prefer... though if the pictures are blurry that has to do with the lens not the LCD.When you take a picture with the LCD are you allowing the camera to focus before pre ...

White Screen:
I turned on my camera shortly after replacing the batteries, but when I looked at my screen, it was completely white. I turned it off, then turned it on again, and the same thing happened. Later, I tried to see if it'll work after I connected it to my computer, but the screen was still white. The camera has been dropped a couple of times, but it wasn't anything severe - just a couple of centimeters from the ground, and I'm pretty sure the screen isn't cracked (I didn't see an

BROKEN LCD Today, I had my camera in my camera bag. Somehow, the screen got busted. I took out my camera to take a picture and the entire full screen view is cracked. The camera turned on and off just fine; it seems that only the screen was damaged. No images are shown when I attempt to look at the pictures I took and when I try to take a picture, I cannot see anything on the screen. Is the screen repairable or is it best to purchase a new digital camera?

Camera problem Hi. I have a Pentax Optio M20 Digital Camera. When I hit the on/off button, the camera turns on, the lens zooms out for a second and then back in, then it shows the "Pentax Optio M" load screen, then it shows "Auto Picture" in the center and a green dot in the bottom left with the words "EV Compensation" next to the dot.

Image 'melts' into streaky vertical lines when camera is turned on.
This problem started occuring immediately after I found my kids deliberately turning the camera off while jamming the lens cover open, so they could get the 'turn camera off and then on again' error message (yes, I know - they've been banned from touching it again). I confiscated the camera, turned it off and it sat unused for about 3 days. When it was next turned on, the image on the LCD screen was

Blurry lenses Same problem exactly. I'm not sure what happened (maybe sand in the camera?) The camera now turns off to a black screen, If I push the botton to see ast pictures, the screen works again and lets me see through them. But If I go back to "take picture mode", the image they give me is all blurry and if I try to use the zoom, the camera turns off.

This sounds like you have gotten some kind of contamination inside the camera, it is blurry because the lens can't move to focus the image in a smooth manner, it is sticking. U can try taking this apart but based on my experience this is best left ...

E18 my canon powershot A150, got the whole E18 problem, it turns on with the blue canon screen, but then two seconds after it turns into a faded black with E18 in the bottom left hand corner. i seriously dont know whats wrong, and it hasnt even been a year since i got the camera, is there any way i can fix this problem? because at the moment buying a camera, my parents would not be too pleased :|
it turns on with blue screen then it goes black and it says e18

E18 is the canon fault number for lens error. Is the lens stuck out? does it click when the camera is switched on? Try lightly tapping the lens on a hard surface. This sometimes resets the lens. If all this fails take it to bits! (but watch the flash ...
